So it is not just CA and NY Democrats that don't believe in the science.

Any politician in "Keep Austin Weird" would probably fit in quite well in either dump.

Austin is the best city in Texas. except for the traffic.

so many summers spent at Lake Travis, so many live music shows, so many really cool people i met when i lived there.

This alone disqualifies it as anywhere that I'd want to visit ever again for any reason.  Seriously.

Far less tolerable than either Dallas or Houston in terms of traffic.

i never found Dallas to be as bad, but Houston was pretty horrific.

i still go to Austin occasionally, mostly for concerts

The most terrifying rush hour traffic I've ever been in was in Houston. This is from an LA driver.

At least in Houston, there tend to be alternative routes.  Not so (much, or at all) in Austin.

Some more hypocrisy out of CA.

 

These California lawmakers distanced for work. Then they shared dinner at a Sacramento restaurant 

 

 

For their swearing-in session on Monday, Assembly leaders moved their house from the state Capitol to the Golden 1 Center to make sure lawmakers were appropriately spaced. COVID-19 safety concerns meant that families and guests were excluded from the event.

Just hours later, however, five California state Assembly members dined together outside at a Sacramento restaurant.

Assembly members Adrin Nazarian, D-West Toluca Lake, Chad Mayes, I-Rancho Mirage, Tasha Boerner Horvath, D-Encinitas, Marc Levine, D-Marin County, and Chris Ward, D-San Diego, along with Mayes’ fiancée, attended a dinner Monday evening at Maydoon, a newer restaurant in Sacramento’s Midtown neighborhood.

When asked by a Sacramento Bee reporter about their decision to enjoy a multi-household outing, Nazarian responded by asking “Can we not have dinner?”

Levine said they were “supporting a local business,” and pulled his mask from his pocket when asked whether the members had face coverings.

35 is a mess from the time you hit Slaughter Lane to the time you hit Pflugerville. on a good day.

Katy Fwy is far better since the widening.  Gotta know when to travel it.

Regardless, take the scenic route in, on Hwy. 90.  Neat towns and pretty good restaurants.
